p. 278 "She touched his hand, as if she did it so seldom she wasn't sure of how."
Touch, remember a few places in GR, especially in that ending, when a simple human touch was an unparodied value in TRPs vision.
Reprised here, the most 'touching' moment in the relationship of Doc
and Penny......more touching than the sex, of course, which is just sex.
Penny says that if she could believe....and Doc finishes 'that I could protect you'....that old-fashioned man-woman dynamic for permanance/marriage??..............
that hippie Doc cannot fulfill.
